In depth
Verdict
Ivory's Joy has endured a long losing sequence but took advantage of a lenient mark when a narrow winner at Chepstow and was then far from disgraced in better company at Chester behind Bishop's Court. Dean Ivory's gallant mare should give another good account while both Jodeeka and Sir Desmond shaped as though ready to strike last time out and are others to consider.
